    They don't have to be from your favorite band, just songs that you like.

    'Shout to the Lord' by Darlene Zschech. It's my all-time favorite song. Ever.

    This could have been an interesting thread. Either contribute something positive or STFU. There is nothing funny worth "Lmao" about my favorite song.

    Seriously. In this instance I agree with you sandy.

    A favorite song of mine? "When I Was A Child" by The Dave Brubeck Quartet on the album Quiet As The Moon.

    What? I am laughing how it is such a coincidence....

    Shout To The Lord Lyrics
    Words and Music by Darlene Zschech

    My Jesus, my Savior
    Lord there is none like You
    All of my days, I want to praise
    The wonders of Your mighty love

    My comfort, my shelter
    Tower of refuge and strength
    Let every breath, all that I am
    Never cease to worship You

    Shout to the Lord
    All the earth let us sing
    Power and majesty
    Praise to the King
    Mountains bow down
    And the seas will roar
    At the sound of Your name
    I sing for joy
    At the work of Your hands
    Forever I'll love You
    Forever I'll stand
    Nothing compares to the promise
    I have in You

    Why don't you just quit it now? Your attacks on me and my posts are not funny. They're pathetic.

    Savatage - Believe

    Savatage's 1991 album Streets is one of the better rock operas. No, it's hardly another Tommy, but it certainly rivals King Diamond's Them. The end of the album is an outpouring of catharsis, including "Heal My Soul" (an adaptation of the Welsh hymn "Suo Gon"), "Somewhere in Time", and the closing number, "Believe".

    Your childhood eyes were so intense,
    While bartering your innocence
    For bits of string:
    The grown-up wings
    You needed.

    But when you had to add them up,
    You found that there were not enough
    To get you in,
    Pay for sins repeated.

    And for all the years you borrowed,
    And for all the tears you cried,
    And for all the fears you had to keep inside:

    I am the way!
    I am the light!
    I am the dark inside the night!
    I hear your hopes!
    I feel your dreams!
    And in the dark,
    I hear your screams!

    Don't turn away!
    Just take my hand!
    And when you make your final stand,
    I'll be right there,
    I'll never leave;
    And all I ask of you is
    Believe!

    I never wanted to know,
    Never wanted to see!
    I wasted my time
    'Til time wasted me!
    I never wanted to go,
    Always wanted to stay,
    'Cause the persons I am
    Are the parts that I play!
    So I plot and I plan,
    And I hope and I scheme,
    To the lure of a night
    Filled with unfinished dreams!
    And I'm holding on tight
    To a world gone astray
    As they charge me for years
    I can no longer pay!

    It's a shame that Paul O'Neill never finished the novel:

    I can't pinpoint a favorite song either. But my favorite kinds of music are:
    -House/Progressive House (incorrectly labelled under Techno)
    -Classic Rock
    -90s College Alternative/Buzz
    -80s

    I'll listen to basically anything except country (old school not included) and hardcore gangsta rap.

    "Seize The Day"

    Seize the day or die regretting the time you lost
    It's empty and cold without you here, too many people to ache over

    I see my vision burn, I feel my memories fade with time
    But I'm too young to worry
    These streets we travel on will undergo our same lost past

    I found you here, now please just stay for a while
    I can move on with you around
    I hand you my mortal life, but will it be forever?
    I'd do anything for a smile, holding you 'til our time is done
    We both know the day will come, but I don't want to leave you

    I see my vision burn, I feel my memories fade with time
    But I'm too young to worry (a melody, a memory, or just one picture)

    Seize the day or die regretting the time you lost
    It's empty and cold without you here, too many people to ache over

    Newborn life replacing all of us, changing this fable we live in
    No longer needed here so where do we go?
    Will you take a journey tonight, follow me past the walls of death?
    But girl, what if there is no eternal life?

    I see my vision burn, I feel my memories fade with time
    But I'm too young to worry (a melody, a memory, or just one picture)

    Seize the day or die regretting the time you lost
    It's empty and cold without you here, too many people to ache over

    Trials in life, questions of us existing here, don't wanna die alone without you here
    Please tell me what we have is real

    So, what if I never hold you, yeah, or kiss your lips again?
    Woooaaah, so I never want to leave you and the memories of us to see
    I beg don't leave me

    Seize the day or die regretting the time you lost
    It's empty and cold without you here, too many people to ache over

    Trials in life, questions of us existing here, don't wanna die alone without you here
    Please tell me what we have is real

    Silence you lost me, no chance for one more day [x2 then continues in the background]
    I stand here alone
    Falling away from you, no chance to get back home
    I stand here alone
    Falling away from you, no chance to get back home

    Bob Dylan - Masters of War

    "Come you masters of war
    You that build all the guns
    You that build the death planes
    You that build the big bombs
    You that hide behind walls
    You that hide behind desks
    I just want you to know
    I can see through your masks

    You that never done nothin'
    But build to destroy
    You play with my world
    Like it's your little toy
    You put a gun in my hand
    And you hide from my eyes
    And you turn and run farther
    When the fast bullets fly

    Like Judas of old
    You lie and deceive
    A world war can be won
    You want me to believe
    But I see through your eyes
    And I see through your brain
    Like I see through the water
    That runs down my drain

    You fasten the triggers
    For the others to fire
    Then you set back and watch
    When the death count gets higher
    You hide in your mansion
    As young people's blood
    Flows out of their bodies
    And is buried in the mud

    You've thrown the worst fear
    That can ever be hurled
    Fear to bring children
    Into the world
    For threatening my baby
    Unborn and unnamed
    You ain't worth the blood
    That runs in your veins

    How much do I know
    To talk out of turn
    You might say that I'm young
    You might say I'm unlearned
    But there's one thing I know
    Though I'm younger than you
    Even Jesus would never
    Forgive what you do

    Let me ask you one question
    Is your money that good
    Will it buy you forgiveness
    Do you think that it could
    I think you will find
    When your death takes its toll
    All the money you made
    Will never buy back your soul

    And I hope that you die
    And your death'll come soon
    I will follow your casket
    In the pale afternoon
    And I'll watch while you're lowered
    Down to your deathbed
    And I'll stand o'er your grave
    'Til I'm sure that you're dead"


    The Roots version is pretty sick too, with a tuneful jab:

    Mother By Roger Waters

    Mother do you think they'll drop the bomb?
    Mother do you think they'll like this song?
    Mother do you think they'll try to break my balls?
    Mother should I build the wall?
    Mother should I run for president?
    Mother should I trust the government?
    Mother will they put me in the firing line?
    Mother am I really dying?

    Hush now baby, baby, dont you cry.
    Mother's gonna make all your nightmares come true.
    Mother's gonna put all her fears into you.
    Mother's gonna keep you right here under her wing.
    She wont let you fly, but she might let you sing.
    Mama will keep baby cozy and warm.
    Ooooh baby ooooh baby oooooh baby,
    Of course mama'll help to build the wall.

    Mother do you think she's good enough -- to me?
    Mother do you think she's dangerous -- to me?
    Mother will she tear your little boy apart?
    Mother will she break my heart?

    Hush now baby, baby dont you cry.
    Mama's gonna check out all your girlfriends for you.
    Mama wont let anyone dirty get through.
    Mama's gonna wait up until you get in.
    Mama will always find out where you've been.
    Mama's gonna keep baby healthy and clean.
    Ooooh baby oooh baby oooh baby,
    You'll always be baby to me.

    Mother, did it need to be so high?
